The Schedule referred to in these Letters Patent and making part of the same I, GEORGE M. HINKLEY,-of Milwaukee, in the county of' Milwaukee, in the State of Wisconsin, have invented certain Improvements in Swaging- Machines, of which the following is a specification.

Nature ml Objects of the Invention. My invention is to swage saws ou the hooking o r cutting side of the teeth. Description of 'the Drawing forming part of this jpecication.

Figure 1 is a itat view of the swaging-maehine on v the front side.

Figure 2, a view of thc back side of the machine. Figure 3, a perspective view of a saw with the `teeth swaged, showing the work when donc.

General Description.

saw to rest against when having its teeth vswagcd.

G and H are screws and nuts, to hold fence in right position, the screws moving up or back in slots I.

K, a mandrel, fitting in frame L, on which to put a circular saw to be swaged, the felice F being re- .meved for that purpose.

M, handle to the lever, which operates the swaging pointl B, pivoted at one end to the body A.

N, an elbow-lever, one end of it pivoted to the body A, and the other end to the swaging point B, and

connected in the center by a pin passing through one end of center piece O, which connects handle M and elbow-lever N together.

P, cover, which holds swaging point B up to its place, there being a piece working over the slot in which the'pieceworks -in which is set the swaging point B, and these pieces, being all fastened together, t'orm the point B.V

Q Q, screws, which pass through a slot in frame L into body A, by loosening of which the frame can bc moved up or run back for a large or smallI circular saw, and the mandrel K is set in a movable piece, R, and screws passthrough a slot in the frame L, vso that the mandrel may be moved back or forward, so as to bring the 4hook-ot' the tooth onto the die O, so thatit may be swa-ged properly.

S, teeth of the saw, their points flattened out on the under side.

The operation of this machine is, that a saw being laid on body A, the back ot' it resting against the fence F, the top side of a tooth resting on die O, and the swaging point being thrown back, is brought forward by the lever M N, and the tooth is swagcd on the hooking side, and the point cutoff to a uniform lengt-h.

Claims.

I claim as my invention- 1. A swagng-maehine, with swagc-point B and die C, arranged relatively to cach other, as shown and described.

2. Mandrel K, frame L, and movable piece 1t, substantiallyl as and for the purpose described.
